The Truthdig Book Review Edited by Steve Wasserman
"Richard Ellis on ‘Diagnosis: Mercury’" -- Thinking of eating tuna? You may change your mind after reading this convincing expose by Jane M. Hightower, a San Francisco doctor.
Marie Cocco on the Economy
"Bush’s Hoover Impression Flirts With Depression" -- At the earliest, it is likely to be at least February or March before the first dollar of an Obama recovery plan is felt. This is a national disgrace.
Joe Conason on Obama’s New Appointees
"Obama’s Shrewd Choices" -- Barack Obama’s appointees will implement the Obama program, not only because that is what he tells them to do but because that is what they have come to believe is best for the country.
E.J. Dionne on Obama and Foreign Policy
"Obama the Realist" -- In electing Barack Obama, the country traded the foreign policy of the second President Bush for the foreign policy of the first President Bush.
Eugene Robinson on the New Era in Politics
"The Peril and Promise of Interesting Times" -- If things get much more “interesting,” we might have a collective nervous breakdown. But along with the anxiety, there’s also a sense of rare opportunity—a chance to emerge better than we were economically, politically and socially.
"Our Dear Leader" -- Judging by the proliferation of capital letters in the e-mail correspondence I receive, many seem worried that Barack Obama may not deliver the promised “change we can believe in.”

Statin Drugs: Another Industry-Sponsored Study, Another Deceptive Result
Is it true that statin drugs can lower your risk of heart attacks by over 50 percent, or is this simply another deceptive marketing ploy?
Robert Scheer on Obama's Pro-Greed Cabinet
"Obama Chooses Wall Street Over Main Street" -- Maybe Ralph Nader was right in predicting that the same Wall Street hustlers would have a lock on our government no matter which major party won the election. I hate to admit it, since it wasn’t that long ago that I heatedly challenged Nader in a debate on this very point.
Chris Hedges on Poverty in America
"Starving for Change" -- The swelling numbers waiting outside homeless shelters and food pantries around the country have grown by at least 30 percent since the summer. If Barack Obama continues to turn to the elites who created the mess, if he does not radically redirect the nation’s resources to assist the working class and the poor, we will become a third-world country.
Larry Gross on "Milk" and Hollywood's Treatment of Homosexuality
"Hollywood’s Closet Still Closed for Business" -- Gus Van Sant’s “Milk” is the first major Hollywood “gay themed” film since “Brokeback Mountain,” and moreover (unlike “Brokeback”), this one is about openly gay activists, not tortured closet cases. Yet, once again, the lead gay roles couldn’t be filled by openly gay actors. What’s going on here?
Sheerly Avni Reviews the New Film and a Classic Documentary"Get Milk" -- Gus Van Sant’s “Milk” is a movie to be thankful for. Go see it, tonight if you can, and in a crowded theater. Then open up some merlot and watch the documentary “The Times of Harvey Milk,” by Robert Epstein—because these two films belong together.
Marie Cocco on Tobacco Control
"The Smoke Is Clearing" -- This week marks a decade since a consortium of state attorneys general negotiated the landmark settlement of lawsuits against tobacco companies. The results are in: Cigarette consumption has declined by 28 percent in the past 10 years.
E.J. Dionne on Obama and the Economy
"Obama’s E-Team" -- Obama’s selection of a team of highly skilled pragmatists has already been described as a move to the political center, but Obama advisers and longtime acquaintances say that this is a misreading of the incoming president and his approach.
Amy Goodman on Obama and the Israeli-Palestinian Conflict
"Tutu, Obama and the Middle East" -- As President-elect Barack Obama focuses on the meltdown of the U.S. economy, another fire is burning: the Israeli-Palestinian conflict.
William Pfaff on Obama and Bush’s Wars
"Bush’s Follies Will Destroy Obama If He Lets Them" -- Barack Obama has no choice but to accept responsibility for America’s foreign policy crises. But why should he accept them on the distorted and even hysterical terms by which the Bush administration has defined world affairs since 2001?
Eugene Robinson on the Pre-Inauguration Phase
"No One In Charge" -- Having two presidents is starting to feel like having no president, and that’s the situation we’ll face until Inauguration Day. Heaven help us.
"Obama’s Use of Complete Sentences Stirs Controversy" -- In the first two weeks after the election, President-elect Barack Obama has broken with a tradition established over the last eight years through his controversial use of complete sentences, political observers say.

The American History You're Not Supposed To Know
http://www.abovetopsecret.com/
This is what is called, in the history biz, a revisionist history. American history, at least as far as the general public knows it, is in desperate need of revision, bringing what is taught and what is said about America's past more in line with the truth.
Making the World Safe For Hypocrisy is a chronology of the largely suppressed history of the United States. It is the history that good upstanding Americans are not supposed to know.
Almost everything you read here is based on publicly available information and most historians know all about it. And yet they remain strangely silent, allowing the fantasyland, propagandized version of American history and the fatuous pseudo-patriotic nonsense spewed by politicians and the mass media to stand unchallenged.
